This is the second collection of the shorter stories of Jules Verne. In this volume five tales ranging from the short to novella-length are presented to give a wide variety of his works. This collection is not unique as it was first published in 1887 under the title of A Winter Amid The ice. That is also the title of one of the stories. The others are: -Dr. Ox's Experiment -Master Zacharius -A Drama In The Air -A Winter Amid the Ice -The 40th French Ascent of Mont Blanc Very little is seen of these works in this day and age, unlike his more famous novels such as 20,000 Leagues Under the Seas, The Mysterious Island, etc. We believe it is about time to get these back into the hands of readers. Enjoy!
Jules Verne wrote and published over 100 novels, short stories, nonfiction books, essays, and plays-some posthumously. He was born on a small river island in Nantes, France, on February 8th, 1828. His parents, Pierre Verne and Sophie Allotte de La Fuÿe, sent Jules to Paris in 1848 to follow in his father's footsteps and become a lawyer. Instead, he developed a love of all things literary and fashioned himself into a prolific and versatile writer. His first novel, Five Weeks in a Balloon, was published in 1863 by publisher Pierre-Jules Hetzel and launched Verne's popular career with the Voyages Extraordinaires series of adventure novels, many of which established key elements of the science fiction genre. He was an instant success in France and other parts of Europe and would become a respected literary giant around the world later in the twentieth century. Verne died on March 24th, 1905, in Amiens, France. Verne's most famous works include Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864), Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1870), and Around the World in Eighty Days (1872). Verne is one of the most translated authors in the world, second only to William Shakespeare, and still holds the prestigious title, "the Father of Science Fiction."
